Eva Katsaiti

Eva Katsaiti is a visual artist, curator, and lecturer at the University of West Attica. Her work explores photography as a language of identity, memory, and belonging—bridging artistic practice with education, social awareness, and creative therapeutic processes. She views photography as a reflective and transformative medium that fosters inclusion and strengthens an individual’s sense of connection to the world.

She holds a BA (Hons) in Photographic Arts from the University of Derby, an MA in Fine Art Photography from the University of Sydney, a Postgraduate Degree in Research Practice from Nottingham Trent University, and a Diploma in Adult Education. She has taught photography at the Universities of West Attica, Athens, Sydney, Lapland, and Jyväskylä, as well as at Oslo Fotokunstskole.

At the University of West Attica, she serves as Departmental Erasmus Coordinator (incoming) and Member of the Gender Equality and Anti-Discrimination Committee (G.E.A.C.). She has delivered lectures and led workshops throughout Europe — in Greece, France, Spain, Turkey, and Norway — promoting art as a means of social participation, inclusion, and gender equality.

Eva has collaborated with the Greek Ministry of Culture, the Research Centre for Gender Equality (KETHI), and the Gallery of the Athens School of Fine Arts. She received the Agfa UK Award (1994) and a grant from the East Midlands Arts Council, and her photographs represented Australia at the Smithsonian Institution. Her current research and artistic work focus on gender identity, displacement, and photographic narrative as acts of resistance and empowerment.
